Cloudflare, celebrating its 15th anniversary, reflects on the evolution of the Internet and envisions a transformative future driven by AI. Over the past decade and a half, significant progress has been made in areas like encryption, while others, such as IPv6 adoption, lag behind. The enduring Internet business model has relied heavily on traffic generation, often incentivizing low-quality content through clickbait. However, the rise of AI-powered "Answer Engines" like ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude presents a challenge to traditional traffic-based models, particularly impacting media companies as they shift from search to direct answers. This change threatens the business models of content creators who rely on traffic and ads for revenue. Cloudflare sees an opportunity to foster a healthier Internet ecosystem by advocating for a new business model where content creators are compensated for enriching AI systems. The company emphasizes the importance of collaboration among AI companies, content creators, and infrastructure providers to ensure a sustainable Internet. Cloudflare is optimistic about the potential for a new golden age of Internet content, driven by creative, local, and unique contributions, and is taking steps to support this shift through partnerships and new tools.
